Upon hearing these words,
Chen Feng and Ye Qianrou both stiffened.
A subtle change crossed their faces as well.
Clearly, their escape attempt had been detected.
And that voice was all too familiar to them.
It was none other than the Clan Leader of the Hattori Family, Hattori Masao.
Obviously, Hattori Masao had been keeping watch over the two in hiding from the start.
The two Guard Warriors stationed at the gate were merely decoys, meant to fool Chen Feng and Ye Qianrou.
Chen Feng and Ye Qianrou exchanged a glance, then turned their heads in unison toward the direction of the voice.
They saw Hattori Masao, escorted by four Green-clothed Samurai, strolling in their direction.
Yet, Hattori Masao's expression was anything but pleasant.
He had anticipated Chen Feng might try to escape but hadn't expected him to act so quickly.
It was fortunate that he had been cautious, watching Chen Feng from the shadows.
Otherwise, Chen Feng truly might have managed to give them the slip.
